and absently tucked her hair behind her ear with one hand.
Marco said softly, “Loraine, how have you been since you were taken away?”
Loraine replied, “Brady has been kind. He didn’t make things difficult for Uncle Rowan and me.”
“I'm just glad you're alright, Loraine...”

Loraine Laughed.
“I told you I could handle it.”
She then turned to look at Marco.
“Why didn’t you go to the hospital? Have you really recovered? Didn't you just say that you were in pain?”
Marco coughed, and Klein's voice chimed in from behind.
“Marco has been worried about you these past few days, which has affected his recovery.”
Brady approached just in tand sighed.
“Marco has used considerable resources and connections, even coming tofor help. If it weren't for the fact
that you and Rowan are safe, | suspect Marco might have stormed the investigation team’s office.”

entwined thoughts.
Despite Marco's deception with Obot, he had risked his life to save
Rowan.
Without his aid, Ashton’s downfall might have been delayed.
Loraine’s heart stuttered. She blinked, murmuring softly, “Thank you,
Marco.
